Food imaginatively and lovingly prepared, and eaten in good company, warms the being with something more than the mere intake of calories. I cannot conceive of cooking for friends or family, under reasonable conditions, as being a chore.”— Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings
Do you have any business advice for young entrepreneurs? One of the biggest lessons in life, love, and entrepreneurship is that there is no linear path. Our journey has been steeped in road blocks, U-turns and dead ends. Give yourself grace if you have to pause and recalculate your route. It’s your route and you’re not in competition with anyone. Run your race. Also, and this is on the more practical side – You don’t have to wait until the end of the month to pay your bills.
No right of passage is achieved without pain. After labor, comes our collective rebirth. Don’t let up. Victory’s within the mile.

YES. Once you accept that Instagram is a performance space, an app for entertainment, decide which role you will play. Selfie savant. Eater of food. Fitspo quad killer. Parent of a three-month-old who will soon be a four-month-old. Meme Lord. They’re all unreliable narrators. Best to trust no one and nothing in general but especially on Instagram. Assume that any marble is vinyl contact paper. Suspect every pot pie of hiding something (ugh, turnips). Only then are you actually living in reality.
